My only sighting of them in 20 something years is this pic I screen grabbed from Reddit, so to answer I’m going to need to investigate. Which I will.

HEY! I won't have any in-print copies of this for a while, and international postage is horrible. So if you've missed out, it'd be my singular honour to provide you with a digital copy of ARTOBOT 2. Only €14! And Vol 1 is also still available on my Ko-Fi! Get you yours! (PLEASE)

Oh, and since I partook I’ve been told I underestimated just how hellish one of my infernal choices is - not just all over America but also chosen by the Sydney Swans, antipodean sports fans.

Hellish is an IMMEDIATE listen every Monday, and as a result of hearing this episode, Liam's book has been an IMMEDIATE buy (in audio form). Can't wait to listen to a tale about an oul' fella that becomes more and more obsessive and separated from real life. Where do these crazy idea come from?
